World Team Camp at the Edge Hoboken

World Team Camp at the Edge Hoboken

Event Info
In preparation for the 2012 London Olympics, the US hopefuls for the Games began a week long training camp at the Edge in Hoboken, NJ. Along with the dozens of wrestlers from the United States, also attending camp was a handful of Mongolian and Russian athletes; many of whom competed this past weekend in the dual meets and NYAC International. This enables the US' best to get that international feel in a learning environment. This camp is culminating with a World Team Clinic this Saturday at 2 PM. The clinic will also be at the Edge facility in Hoboken. All proceeds from the clinic will go towards funding our athletes training as they look to bring home the Gold in 2012.Special thanks to Dave Esposito, Brandon Kinney, and Jeff Marsh for hosting this camp at their awesome facility. Also, a big thanks to Coach Zeke Jones for allowing the wrestling community an inside look as the guys ready themselves for the Olympic Trials and ultimately the 2012 London Games. Last but CERTAINLY not least, our man Ed Piccola for crushing this coverage AND stepping up and taking on World Champ Jordan Burroughs in a rope climb challenge. You killed it, Ed!
